As time goes by, you don't have the results you were expecting.

Maybe, just maybe, you went back to that person's work space and got short-tempered or some other form of angry with them. In fact, the real problem here is not your staff member, it's actually you.

Now, you're probably a little mad with me for bringing this to your attention, but someone has got to tell you that for your staff to cooperate, you have to be 100% clear about what you want accomplished, and exactly when you need the job done, so that they may get it done.

How can you be clear about what you want? Let's consider the options. If you tell someone that you need something as soon as possible, what time should they circle on their schedule as the time to get you that particular job? I don't
